Battles
of the Thirty Years War: From White Mountain to Nordlingen, 1618-1635 (Contributions
in Military Studies) by William P. Guthrie
Book Description: This is the first complete detailed study of the military
aspects of the first half of this important conflict (1618-1635). Each
chapter deals with a particular battle, but Guthrie also examines wider
questions of strategy, leadership, armaments, organization, logistics,
and war finances. The main emphasis is on the unique character and aspects
of the Thirty Years War, with attention to the evolution of warfare and
weapons, the impact of this evolution on actual operations, and the replacement
of the previously dominant "tercio" style of warfare by the nascent linear
system.
